Black And White
I clamor on the street
Watch it wave like trees
I knew I wasn't free
Life is becoming a bee
I walk far from homeland
Became a pathfinder
The leaves round me are brown
Need walk to green land
Home became a security lane
Walk miles to sustain
They watches like I'm insane
With guards that constrain
Land fully rich with milk and honey
My Thoughts yawn to sow
My feelings crave for harvest
Brown devourers everywhere
From south I walk north
With little life of water,
I clinched the desert
Rounded with dejected souls
Angry they are night and day
Ahead lies the fresh vegetation
Body already weaken
Soul receiving invitation
Languages were strange
The whole body down to earth
My ears refused to leave
As the soul invitation is declined
Woke up in hands of greenlanders
Everywhere became dazzling
The faces full of love
They called me lucky
Invitations rolling in
Streets full of greens
Felt the difference between lines
Home away from home.
